CARPE DIEM

Will Ambros

Patience.
Wear me proudly,
As I'm the air you breathe.
Without me, love's a figment,
Love's a sickled, dying leaf.

Understanding.
Flaunt me profusely,
As I'm the water to your tongue.
Without me, love's a fairy tale,
Love's a battle never won.

Tolerance.
Display me brilliantly,
As I'm the knowledge to your soul.
Without me, love's a bard,
With not a story to be told.

And so,
With said advice imparted,
Take heed to what's been stated.
Adhere to all these rules of thumb,
And love can be created.
